Graduated with my masters in accounting in 2022. Been at Deloitte for the past 3 years. I feel like the exit opportunities are not what I expected. What are some examples of people pivoting from accounting into something else in the business world that can help point me towards a more fulfilling career. Just want to help people and be happy. Not a very technical accountant but am quite competent

The FBI is hiring forensic accountants. You could also look to your local DAs office to see of they are hiring accountants/auditors to help with financial crime investigations. Pay cut for sure but great WLB and benefits. Plus, you would be doing interesting and fulfilling work.

So I worked from home yesterday and my husband had a sneak peak on my meetings with clients (which I’m very new to being a senior). He mention that I should read some sales pitch books of some sorts so I can get a process down and not be drain from having genuine conversations with every client. I think it’s a great idea. Anyone have thoughts or recommendation?

Do not try to relate to someone who has ADHD. Symptoms v disorder … you likely just have symptoms here and there. If you had the disorder, you wouldn’t have made it this far without knowing.

However, the meds are great, and good luck getting them!

Just signed the outside employment form in KPMG onboarding system. I actually wanted to start dabbling in creative writing as a potentially monetizable hobby, but I'm guessing this may pose issues.

Definitely interested in the "exception from this policy may be requested if provision of non-professional services doesn't interfere with one's duties of causes conflict of interest" clause, though. Has anyone been able to get one of those before?
